New Security Awareness Posters and Videos Now Available

["David C. Lyon" <dclyon () CSUPOMONA EDU>]

The EDUCAUSE/Internet2 Computer and Network Security Task Force, the
National Cyber Security Alliance, CyberWATCH, and ResearchChannel are
pleased to announce the availability of new security awareness posters
and videos. The posters and videos are the winning entries in the 2009
Computer Security Awareness Poster and Video Contest, which was
conducted to raise awareness of and increase computer security at
colleges and universities.

The contest sought posters and videos that explain computer security
problems and specific actions that college and university students can
take to safeguard their computers or personal information. The posters
and videos can be incorporated into campus orientation efforts for new
and returning students this summer and fall, as well as campus security
awareness campaigns such as National Cyber Security Awareness Month in
October.

There were 87 submissions from 31 colleges and universities. The winning
posters and videos are available on ResearchChannel's website:
http://www.researchchannel.org/securityvideo2009/.

EDUCAUSE, Internet2, and the other sponsoring organizations will launch
a public relations media effort in September to help promote October as
National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM). You can view resources
and more information on NCSAM on the National Cyber Security Alliance
